Pediatric Headache in the Age of Social Media: A Topical Review.
Review in Current pain and headache reports, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
purpose of reviewThe aims of this topical review are to (1) summarize existing literature over the last 5 years investigating the effects of social media use on headaches in children and adolescents; (2) propose potential risks and benefits of social media use relevant to pediatric headache; and (3) offer future directions for research and clinical care in this area. RECENT
findingsFew studies have examined social media effects in youth with headache disorders. Limited available survey data suggests increased duration social media use may be associated with increased pediatric headache incidence and intensity, though with significant limitations identified in study designs and methodological approaches. Notably, no studies found examined potential benefits of social media for youth with headaches. We propose considering both risks and benefits of social media effects for youth with headache given their potential to influence key pain-related and lifestyle domains including physical activity, sleep, mental health, and health-related knowledge. Further research utilizing longitudinal study designs and objective measures are needed to better understand the effects of social media on pain and health-related outcomes in youth with headaches.
